Indeed. Just like going to the doc's office or hospital
without insurance and asking if they give a discount for
paying cash.
Many docs and hospitals in the U.S. now do. Today more
haggling over prices takes place in U.S. medicine than in
the street markets of Mexico.
And please spare me how this is not a problem in Canada.  |

In a 1990 car? I doubt it.
In some cars, you need to have a door open to get inside the door. Not
all, though.

In 2001 the auto retractor on my driver's side seat belt
failed on my 91 Civic. Turns out it has a seat belt
warranty. I did not pay a cent to have it fixed. It was not
a cheap fix, based on how long it took them.

Speculation is drowning substantive discussion lately here.
I doubt it, too, but it's worth checking the warranty or
making a call. >> Stay informed about: 1990 Honda Accord - drivers door won't open |

Well, non functioning brakes on a 15 year old vehicle is probably a more
"major safety issue" and I doubt they will cover that under warranty... >> Stay informed about: 1990 Honda Accord - drivers door won't open |

You got that right.
But in this case, he was in DC when the dispatcher called him. He had to
drive all the way over to McLean from there.

VA had a brief "tax holiday" during the August "Back to School" period.
We were right in the middle of that. The malls were nuts.

By the way, there is somebody I know who follows this group but chooses
not to post. To him: We really meant to go to the Daily Grill, but never
made it... Next time. And there will be one!

BTW, speakin' of Boston and food, if you ever get to that neck o' the
woods, don't miss a meal at Durgan Park. It's an experience of a lifetime!

Thanks. Passing this on to the wife. We LOVE good restaurants.
And Boston is one of our next US venues.
